metamorphic - formed when igneous or sedimentary rocks are put under extreme heat and/or pressure. igneous - volcanic rock (comes from a volcano) sedimentary - particles of rock/sand/shells/clay etc. 'gathered' to make a rock.
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
Rocks are classified into three groups based on how they are formed. Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and crystallizes. Sedimentary rock is formed when the products of weathering and erosion are compacted and cemented to form new rock. Metamorphic rock is formed when existing rock is changed by heat, pressure or chemical change into a new kind of rock.
Anthracite is a metamorphic rock. Anthracite is formed when an organic sedimentary rock - coal - is compressed and heated in the ground.
All rocks are solid. Igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.
Aquamarine is a form of the mineral beryl.
metamorphic
The three main types of rocks are igneous, formed from cooling lava or magma; sedimentary, formed from compressed layers of sediment; and metamorphic, formed from existing rocks that undergo high heat and pressure.
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
Graphite is a metamorphic rock. It is formed from the metamorphism of organic sedimentary rocks, such as coal, under high temperature and pressure.
It is a metamorphic rock formed from a progenitor sedimentary rock called a "conglomerate".
yes
Rocks are classified as igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic based primarily on their origin and how they were formed. Igneous rocks are formed from cooled magma or lava, sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments, and metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
The three groups are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. igneous forms when magma or lava cools down. sedimentary forms when sediments (clay, sand, silt etc) gets compressed. and metamorphic forms when an igneous or sedimentary goes under very high temperatures and pressure
Igneous- Formed from hot molten magmaSedimentary- formed from sediments piling up creating layersMetamorphic- Formed when intense heat AND pressure are applied to an igneous or sedimentary rock.
Marble, the rock, is metamorphic. From limestone.
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
